Adam L. Hirsch

Mr. Hirsch, a partner in the firm’s Denver office, represents clients nationally in all aspects of bankruptcy, business restructuring, and related litigation. He represents secured and unsecured lenders, DIP lenders, chapter 11 plan sponsors, acquirers of assets in section 363 asset sales, landlords and tenants, equipment lessors and lessees, IP licensors and licensees, and providers of various goods and services. Mr. Hirsch also represents clients in transactional matters involving financially distressed parties and debtors reorganizing under chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code.

Mr. Hirsch’s background and experience representing companies in varied economic conditions, paired with his deep understanding of commercial creditor and debtor rights under the Bankruptcy Code, makes him a go-to resource for distressed companies and counterparties seeking to mitigate insolvency and bankruptcy risk.

Leveraging Kutak Rock’s national platform, Mr. Hirsch represents clients coast to coast. He has appeared in bankruptcy cases in New York and Colorado where he is licensed, as well as Delaware, Pennsylvania, Maryland, Chicago, Texas, Arizona,and California. He has also represented clients in numerous distressed transactional matters throughout the United States.

Described by clients as a “problem solver who approaches distressed situations thoughtfully and efficiently,” he looks at business problems holistically, and seeks practical solutions aligned with his clients’ objectives and business culture.

Prior to joining Kutak Rock, Mr. Hirsch worked for a large New York firm, and represented clients in a wide variety of bankruptcy and finance-related matters before, during and after the 2008 financial crisis and subsequent economic recession. As a result, he offers a unique perspective to clients—one that allows him to help clients reduce exposure and potentially avoid bankruptcy altogether, or help clients seek solutions that preserve asset value, maximize recovery, and mitigate loss when bankruptcy cannot be avoided.
